If you need a copy of Morrowind to use in OpenMW, you can find it on GOG.
Works with the Steam version as well - that's what I used when I played Morrowind a year and a half ago!

This is some advanced stuff. For games that only support DirectInput I usually just use Steam Big Picture to map the keyboard buttons to the controller.

Dear article author,

You are my god.

I collect gamepads that do not come from the three biggest console brands (Xbox, PlayStation or Switch). Connecting some via Bluetooth is fresh hell.

I am sure I will come back to your article multiple times. Great job ^_^
